As you might be able to tell we’ve been struggling to find speakers for WordUp which is probably more to do with our time rather than a lack of interesting WordPress people in Brighton. This is something we really want to sort out for future events by harnessing the power of you lot to help suggest speakers and topics. However, this time round we’re going to run a WordUp special.

Happy New Year! Slightly later than I’d hoped, I’d like to announce January’s WordUp which will be held at the Skiff this coming Monday 16th January at 7:30pm (although the doors will be open from 7pm to those who want to come and have a beer and a chat)

Announcing the October meeting of Word Up Brighton, a WordPress user group for people in the Brighton area. It’s this coming Monday 17th at the Skiff. Doors open at 7pm and we get started around 7:30pm

This month our guest speaker is Paul Gibbs, a Web Developer for the Telegraph Media Group. He will be sharing some insights about how WordPress and BuddyPress are used by The Telegraph’s “Blogs” and “My Telegraph” websites, covering topics such as editorial and technical workflows, and plugins. There will be time to ask questions about how The Telegraph uses WordPress and open source.

As usual we will be getting you to showcase some of your work in the Press Release section, so get in touch by email or twitter (@wordupbrighton) with anything you’d like to present. It’s free, so grab a ticket from Eventbrite, and let the world know you’re coming on Lanyrd.
